Introduce the ability to conditionally insert page breaks during the paging process

Currently, page breaks in reports are static and cannot adapt to dynamic conditions during rendering. This limitation makes it challenging to format highly variable reports where layout requirements depend on runtime data or page positioning.

The requested feature would allow developers to define expressions or rules that determine whether a page break should occur, considering factors such as:

  • The current page number
  • The position of a specific control on the page
  • Other Internal report variables

Benefits

  • Enables precise control over report layout for complex, data-driven scenarios
  • Improves usability for industries requiring strict formatting standards (e.g., financial, healthcare, compliance reporting)
  • Aligns functionality with competitive reporting tools like Crystal Reports, enhancing product competitiveness
  • Reduces manual workarounds and simplifies report design for advanced pagination needs

Similar, but more specific request already exists:
